We are really feeling fall here. It has cooled down so much in the last week and we have had a lot of rain, making it sweater weather. It may return to the 80-90 degree weather we had 2 weeks ago, but for now it is definitely autumn.

My pumpkins have mostly turned orange and they are so festive. Two of the pumpkins are larger than any pumpkin I've EVER grown before. I'm so excited to put them on my front porch!

This is the big one, hiding in the leaves. If I remember I'll take another pic of it when I have it on my porch so you can tell how big it is compared to the other small pumpkins.

To go with my pumpkin fever, here's a lil' punkin (yes, it is little about 1-2 inches tall) crochet project that works up in about 5 or 10 minutes. Really, this crocheted pumpkin is so easy.Here is a link to an easy step-by-step You Tube video I did showing how to make this adorable 'lil punkin':

I love the pumpkins growing in my pumpkin patch. I love the cooler temps at night. I love the smell of the air.The leaves are just starting to change to beautiful fall colors in the mountains. I also love sweaters and sweat shirts. Yes indeed, a great time of year!I've been making autumn decorations and having fun dressing the inside of my home to match the harvest time outdoors.Here is a link to a you tube video I did of the pumpkin centerpiece that I've been making (it has step-by-step instructions):
